A powerful approach to search is to try to learn a distribution of good solutions (in particular of the dependencies between their variables) and use this distribution as a basis ...
Given a set of strings S of equal lengths over an alphabet Σ, the closest string problem seeks a string over Σ whose maximum Hamming distance to any of the given strings is as s...
In this paper we describe a new class of representations for realvalued parameters called Center of Mass Encoding (CoME). CoME is based on variable length strings, it is self-adap...
The application of network analysis to emergent mating topologies in spatially structured genetic algorithms is presented in this preliminary study as a framework for inferring ev...
In this work we propose a new algorithm for fragile, high capacity yet file-size preserving watermarking of MPEG-2 streams. Watermarking is done entirely in the compressed domain,...
